Model 220 Profile Sander
The Model 220 Profile Sander is a two spindle machine designed for use with flexible brush type sanding wheels. The spindles are counter-rotating, allowing corners to be sanded without rounding
over, and to sand in two directions. There are two height settings, allowing it to be used for both edge and panel sanding. In the raised position, the table moves toward the spindles, under the
panel sanding wheel, providing support for small panels.
The Larick Model 220 features two counter-rotating spindles to be used with brush type sanding wheels. This allows parts to be sanded without noticeable rounding over on corners. The sanding
technique is to sand the left corners on the right sander (CW rotation) and the right corners on the left sander (CCW rotation). This method has the brushes formed to the profile as they go
over the corners.
The spindles move up or down together and are controlled by an air valve. Adjustable stops are used for positioning. In addition to the vertical spindle travel, the tabletop also moves back 2" when
the spindles are raised. This provides support under the lower sanding head when sanding raised panels.
Dear Woodworkers,
Before establishing Larick Machinery, Inc. in 1988, I was an engineer for a medium sized cabinet company. We had recently discovered a stretchable abrasive for profile sanding wheels which,
to our surprise, WORKED!! We knew there were thousands of others who could also benefit from this profile sanding system, so we designed a profile sander with every feature WE wanted if WE
were setting it up and using it every day. The result is the MODEL 360. It has a tilting spindle with a scale, variable speed, vertical AND horizontal adjustment--unique to Larick in this
price range--which is one of its most beneficial features. It allows use of a simple, fixed fence for the initial setup, and provides the operator with a means of adjusting sanding pressure or
compensating for wheel wear by simply turning a handwheel.
Larick's value priced MODEL 120 profile sander features variable speed and vertical adjustment. It is ideal for sanding arched or straight raised panels and for applications not requiring a tilting
spindle. A fence is optional.
Larick also manufactures custom profiled sanding wheels to use on either our sanders or others. We use a patented, stretchable, velcro backed abrasive which conforms to a profile as it is
stretched around a formed wheel. Available grits are 100, 120, 150, and 180. Our sanding wheels combine aggressive sanding with low cost to give exceptional value!
Great news for you is that labor savings alone can pay for a machine and, as a bonus, quality and consistency will improve significantly. A demonstration video showing features, setup, operation,
and results is available. I feel we have developed the most versatile, user friendly profile sanders on the market at very competitive prices. Thank you for your time and interest in our
products. We look forward to serving you in the near future.
